This used to be such a nice neighbourhood before the quack dealers moved in
Is this the joke or have you added a better punchline?
Don’t ask me, I’m just a silly duck
I don’t think that this cartoon was an intentional reference to crack. (Sadly - that’s a great punchline.) The date on the cartoon is 1980, which would have been marginally too early for crack to exist. It certainly wouldn’t have been an idea that was floating around mainstream culture.
I was curious enough to look it up.

It’s just Larson being a master of weird, non-sequitur humor. And in this case, foretelling the future of underworld transactions in the 80s. Maybe not all psychics are quacks after all.
Underworld transactions have always been a thing, especially since the prohibition era.
Funniest shit I’ve ever seen
